Safeguarding and Promoting Children's Welfare

All those working in our school share an objective to our pupils and have a pastoral responsibility towards them. We can all can play a part in the prevention of abuse and neglect, through our school policies and procedures for safeguarding children, and through the curriculum. We strive to create and maintain a safe environment for our pupils and effectively manage any situations where there are concerns. Children are helped to understand what is and is not acceptable behaviour towards them, and are taught about staying safe from harm, and how to speak up if they have worries or concerns. The curriculum also plays a preventive role in preparing our pupils for their future responsibilities as adults, parents and citizens.
